I was just thinking that Johnny Depp’s character, Captain Jack Sparrow, in Pirates of the Caribbean has a certain connection to what Bugs Bunny is all about as well.
A couple trickster links…

Bugs

Wednesday, November 26th, 2003

This is a bitchin’ article called Teemings - Issue 12 - The Persistence of Bugs Bunny : Take 2. Just to quote a great paragraph:
“The more I thought about it, the clearer it became that Bugs was like the Trickster character in so many mythologies. Raven in the Pacific Northwest and Anansi in Sub-Saharan […]

Loki

Wednesday, November 26th, 2003

There’s a funny story from Norse Mythology where Thor’s hammer, mjolnir is stolen by a giant, who will only give it back if Freyja marries him. Thor and Loki dress up like the Goddess and a maid, and then go to the giant, and get the hammer back. Hilarious. That’s such a Bugs Bunny maneuver. […]

Coyote & Raven

Wednesday, November 26th, 2003

Also gonna follow up on this thing about Wile E. Coyote and the Roadrunner as being the Native American Coyote & Raven gods.
This thing,
Native American Mythology: Northern Gods, describes Raven as “Very greedy, forever seeking food.” Which make sense, since the Coyote was always trying to trap him with food in the cartoon.

Pookah

Wednesday, November 26th, 2003

I also just remembered that there’s a thing from Robert Anton Wilson about some big rabbit god that he called Pookah. I’m gonna run down that trail for a monet as well.
“The pookah takes many forms, but is most famous when he appears as a giant, six-foot white rabbit - which is the form […]

Bugs Bunny as a Trickster God

Wednesday, November 26th, 2003

I’m still thinking about the pantheon of Looney Tunes, and was having some thoughts about how Bugs Bunny is sort of a trickster god, kind of like Loki or something… But I need to research that more, cause it’s been a while since I looked at any Norse mythology. I was once really into that […]

Somebody named Qinhong has thrown up a link to my site, so here’s to you. I was just taking a perusal of their blog, and I like the end of this one post that says
“I hate myself for not being able to tell people how they really suck so bad.”
Qinhong, just tell them that they […]

Moetry in potion

Wednesday, November 26th, 2003

I’ve really found myself wanting to write some poetry lately. But nothing at all poetical has been happening to me, so I have nothing to do but rehash old victories and defeats. And I don’t want to do that, so I haven’t been doing that. And that frenzied bit of research I just finished up […]
